Filmed in the early hours of Saturday morning at Frankfurt Airport, the astonishing video shows a disgruntled man, 38, arguing loudly with staff at the airport check-in desk reportedly shouting "I am a British citizen”.

The man is seen confronting airport staff including police officers

The situation soon becomes violent with the angry passenger unleashing kicks and punches at two police officers

The incredible situation, which was captured and uploaded to Facebook by rapper Schwesta Ewa, quickly descends into chaos when a woman believed to be his wife is knocked over during the argument.

The stocky brawler then starts to manhandle three police officers - knocking them to the ground with punches and kicks.

The man, wearing a white t-shirt and jeans, is then subdued by a staff member reportedly using a Taser and is now being investigated by German authorities over alleged assault charges.

Bad weather at the weekend led to a number of flights being cancelled and thousands of passengers being stranded at Frankfurt airport.

Musician Ewa posted the viral footage, which now has over two million views, along with this caption: “Today at the Frankfurt airport. What's going on in this world."
